Subject: format() applied to an NA character string (PR#9616)
I get strange results when I try to format() an NA character string.
> x <- 'sometext'
> x[1] <- NA
> format(NA, width=32) # displays sensibly, right-justified
> format(x,width=32) # displays sensibly, left-justified
> format(x,width=33) # displays ""
> format(x,width=36) # R exits abnormally with code 5
